Ilya, known online as mazellovvv or mzlff, is a controversial yet iconic figure. His rise to the top of Twitch streams began relatively recently, and his rise was meteoric, like a rocket launched on a wave of irony and absurdity. He gained popularity through Twitch, but it was TikTok that truly brought him the public's love, where, under the pseudonym Maz Korzh, he launched a wave of bold, deliberately simple, and sometimes downright humorous tracks.
At first glance, songs like "Birds Are Flying...," "Maz Korzh," and the like seemed like a collection of silly jokes and obscene language. But there was magic in this apparent simplicity. They struck a chord with a generation, becoming hits among teenagers for whom such music was an honest and unpretentious soundtrack to life. Ilya, the creator of these meme-songs, remained a complex person inside. Behind the mask of a cheerful streamer and cringe-worthy hitmaker, he harbored doubts and a desire to create something different, something deeper and more personal. But the fear that this different kind of music wouldn't appeal to anyone weighed on him, forcing him to remain in the comfortable but cramped cage of popularity. His self-esteem, already low, sometimes felt buried somewhere deep under the baseboard.
The turning point in his career was a seemingly ordinary stream. Vladimir Bratishkin "CHEF," a legend of the Russian internet and a streaming guru, dropped into his chat and then into his network. The very same one whose name is synonymous with success. Vova, with a phenomenal eye for talent, recognized in Ilya that uncut diamond—charisma, sincerity, and potential that Ilya himself hadn't seen in himself. The invitation to join the legendary 89 SQUAD sounded like an order from above. Ilya, of course, accepted.
From that moment on, everything spun at incredible speed. He found not just patronage, but a real community of like-minded, vibrant, and wild Twitch streamers. This wasn't just online anymore; it was a big game, a brotherhood where he finally felt like he belonged.

And then one day in Moscow, by some magical coincidence, the true titans of this universe gathered. The company was stellar: Alexey Gubanov, a giant of thought and humor, a friend of Vovchik himself; Vladimir Bratishkin himself; a couple of Ilya's old friends; the unpredictable Maxim Stint; and the charismatic Tokha T2X2. All the faces of the iconic 89 SQUAD, all the guys whose nicknames thundered on the airwaves.
They gathered in a cozy bar, where dark wood and soft lighting created an intimate atmosphere. Ilya, always the life and soul of the party, was especially radiant this time. It was impossible not to have a drink with him; his aura charged everyone around him with carefree fun. By the second hour of the meeting, the atmosphere had reached that perfect temperature when everything seemed right and simple.
But Ilya suddenly felt stuffy. The noise, the laughter, the warmth, all mingled together into one dense mass. Without thinking twice, he stood up, nodding toward the exit: "I'll go have a smoke." Vova, catching his mood, silently followed him.
They stood by the heavy door of the bar, in the cool Moscow air, wafting wisps of smoke into the night. They chatted leisurely about their own affairs. And then, at the end of the lantern-lit street, a girl appeared. She looked closely, took a few hesitant steps, and recognition flashed in her eyes. The target, of course, was Vova; most of the community knew his face.
"Excuse me, can I take a photo with you?" she asked, smiling shyly. Vova, tired and relaxed, waved her off gently:
Smiling broadly, showing all his thirty-two teeth, although he was always a little embarrassed about his one slightly crooked front incisor, and tried to smile more reservedly, he turned to the girl:
